Camden policing on BBC1. Over the past 18 months the BBC has filmed an observational documentary series about the Met Police. This five part Documentary follows the officers of Britain's biggest and busiest police service as they deal with life, death, crime and its victims, all across the capital, featuring Camden.

Watch the BBC trailer as our own Borough Commander Richard Tucker is told by a member of the public that he doesn’t have any confidence in the Metropolitan Police.

Abigail Priddle, one of the programme’s makers says, “I’m from London and I always felt like I really knew it, but for the first time I saw the city with fresh eyes, and that was quite an extraordinary thing for me. There were things I saw that I’ll never forget. For example, we were first on scene with two officers at a fatal stabbing. That was very emotional and difficult. We followed one case with a CID officer who was tracking a suspect for a long time and we were there when she finally got him into custody. That was a privilege to a share in that experience. On a lighter note, the humour of the cops I met was nice to see. They’re faced with a lot of grimness, but they can have a laugh and they’ve got a great camaraderie.”
